It’s been just shy of twenty days now and my curiosity got the better of me. I picked up the phone and gave the shop a call.
As always the co-owner who I talked to could NOT have been nicer!
She stated that while my works were generating a TON of conversation and questions, none were sold yet. She is hoping that the upcoming 4th of July weekend is approaching and to “keep our fingers crossed”.
I have a feeling they are priced a tad bit high and will have to be low...

Well, my wife and I took the 45 minute drive to the shop this past Monday on a SCORCHING hot and humid day.
I was supposed to meet one of the three ladies that run the place – instead two of them were there and very eager to meet me and go through my work!
They were very nice and honestly stated their thoughts on whether or not the pieces were “matches” with the overall “vibe” of their shop.
ALL the Beatles & John Lennon were snatched up quickly.

So, My wife and I visited a “Kitschy Artsy” shop in Havre’ De Grace, Maryland a few weeks back and started talking to one of the owners about a really nice Stained Glass Portrait of John Lennon. My wife mentioned that it looked a lot like one of my scroll-work pieces.
One thing lead to another, and I was asked if I would be willing to sell my artwork on consignment at her shop?
At first thought, the answer is “Of course I would – I would be GLAD to!”...

Has any one out there in Lj.com ever done any selling of there project on e-bay, and if so how did you do. I am thinking about trying it out one day even if just for some extra cash for more wood and tools. On a side note I know of a consignment shop near by that deals in furniture, has and one ever tried consignment.
